Syncro wheel carrier

Post by Dazco »

Mods, Ive posted in this section instead of wheels and tires bit as its a bit more syncro specific .
Do these carriers use an internal plate to spread the load ?

It's just the size of the spreader plate on the inside that I'm curious about. Took lots of pics of the one on jeds at the weekend, didnt get chance to ask about the inner bit :oops:

It's pretty much the outer hinge mirrored on the inside with a brace going to the batt box.

If you are making them you could have them as wide as you wanted to spread the weight of the carrier and wheel
